transpuntation

The act where one tries to tell a pun or joke in another language but it turns out to be totally lame, since the point gets lost in translation.

Most transpuntations are followed by awkward silence.

Serial transpuntators don't ever notice they are not funny and they keep doing it all the time, promting you to improve your fake laughter.
Maarit from Finland decides to pull a transpuntation: 'My mate Santtu was sitting in the pub with a yellowish drink in front of him. I asked "Oh, are you having a Jaloiviina, mate?" "No" he replied, "It's Fisu - I'm working tomorrow.'

Transnationalism

When you are born (and shamed since your inception) one nationality, but you like the food and culture of another, such as Italian, so you take on the mannerisms of another and decide to mimic them as a lifestyle.
"Man, I'm fucking Canadian and the only cuisine we have is poutine. I am SO into transnationalism. I renounce my culture, I rebuke my upbringing and I bring shame upon my house. I want and need to be.......Italian."

Aural Transmutation

The psychological phenomenon of your mind turning a pretty mediocre song into a much better song when you recall the song from memory. Disappointment is guaranteed when you actually hear a song again.
Guy: This song sucks...I'm suffering from a case of aural transmutation!

Girl: What's that?

Guy: I remember this song being a lot better in my head. My mind must have aurally transmuted it into a better song.

Girl: Don't feel bad, everybody has to do that with Justin Beiber's "My World"
